Lynxcool's Cooling Tower is a high-performance wet cooling system. It utilizes evaporative cooling to efficiently cool warm condensate from refrigeration systems, chillers, or industrial processes, thereby reducing condensation temperature and improving energy efficiency.
By achieving 5–10°C lower water temperatures compared to air-cooled condensers, the cooling towers improve compressor COP and reduce operational energy costs. Our towers are installed worldwide in industrial refrigeration plants, commercial chiller systems, power generation facilities, chemical plants, and data centers.
Available in counter-flow and cross-flow designs, with induced or forced draft fans, and constructed from FRP, galvanized steel, or stainless steel, Lynxcool's towers are scalable from 50 kW to 50,000 kW per cell, with multi-cell configurations for larger capacities.

Applications
Industrial Refrigeration: Cooling Tower is optimized for water-cooled compressors in food processing, cold chain, pharmaceutical, and chemical plants. Condensing temperatures are reduced by 5–10°C, and compressor efficiency is increased by 10–20%.
Commercial HVAC Chillers: Ideal for hospitals, hotels, data centers, and office buildings. Supports multi-cell operation with staged load control for maximum energy savings.
Power Generation: Compatible with gas turbine and engine cooling systems, with FRP or galvanized steel construction and IP55 fan motors.
Chemical and Petrochemical Processes: Resistant to aggressive water chemistry, high-fouling conditions, and chemical vapor environments. Stainless steel or FRP construction available.
Data Centers and IT Cooling: Cooling Tower features an N+1 redundancy configuration, equipped with EC fans for precise outlet water temperature control, and an enhanced demister to effectively control Legionella risk.
FAQ
Q: Difference between counter-flow and cross-flow cooling towers?
A: Counter-flow: water falls downward, air moves upward — opposite directions, maximising heat transfer and achieving closer approach to wet-bulb temperature; more compact.
Cross-flow: water falls, air moves horizontally — lower air-side pressure drop, easier maintenance, preferred for large HVAC/industrial applications. Lynxcool manufactures both and recommends based on capacity, footprint, wet-bulb approach, and maintenance access.
Q: How close can leaving water get to wet-bulb temperature?
A: Practically, approach is 3–6°C. Smaller approach needs larger towers. Lynxcool engineers size towers to balance capital cost and chiller energy savings.
Q: How to manage Legionella risk?
A: Four steps: (1) drift elimination ≤0.001%, (2) regular biocide dosing, (3) blowdown control to prevent scale/biofilm, (4) routine inspection/cleaning. Lynxcool provides a Legionella documentation package with each tower.
Q: Performance at low ambient temperatures?
A: Tower delivers colder water — improves refrigeration COP. Risk: ice formation. Lynxcool cold-climate package modulates fans, heats basin, and bypasses water to enable operation down to −30°C.
Q: Water treatment and consumption?
A: Treat for scale, corrosion, bio-growth, and solids (pH adjustment, inhibitors, biocide). Evaporation ≈1–1.5%, blowdown ≈0.5–1% of flow. Example: 1,000 kW tower, 5°C range → 1.5–2.0 m³/h. Lynxcool provides water balance calculations for each project.
Q: Manufacturing and quality assurance?
A: Made in China, ISO 9001-certified facility. QA includes material inspection, dimensional checks, basin hydro test, fan motor test, drift eliminator verification. Thermal performance data and installation docs included.
